Installation suggests previously used directory
 

I have some trouble when building different installations for different versions of my program. When I run the newer installation, the suggested directory to install to is the previously used directory, for an older version.

I make up the InstallDir using:

code:
InstallDir "$PROGRAMFILES\MyCompany\${PRODUCT_FULL_NAME}"

Where the variables are something like;

code:


!define PRODUCT_NAME "MyProgram"

!define PRODUCT_VERSION "2.0 RC2"

!define PRODUCT_FULL_NAME "${PRODUCT_NAME} ${PRODUCT_VERSION}"

So the install dir should look something like
"C:\Program Files\MyCompany\MyProgram 2.0 RC2"
But instead I get
"C:\Program Files\MyCompany\MyProgram 2.0 RC1"
which I previously used as installdir.
I'm 100% positive that I changed the variable in the NSIS script. The variable is used in the output file, why I know it's right.

Any ideas to why this happens?

OK, I big RTFM on me, for not reading about InstallDirRegKey, which my co-developer have snuck into the script =^_^=

I can't delete my original post... Any ideas how?

Moderators can only delete it, but it's a worthy topic to keep in my opinion for future reference for others :)

At least I'll be the boozo that other can point to and say "Don't do like him!" ;-)
